Motor Toon Grand Prix is a 1994 Mascot Racer game for the PlayStation that was released in Japan only. It was the first creation of Polyphony Digital (best known for the Gran Turismo series) and one of the PlayStation's earliest racing titles. Compared to later racing games on the system, Motor Toon Grand Prix is rather primitive, featuring only five racers and three tracksnote Actually eight if one counts the bonus tracks for the player to race on, though it does provide a unique blend of arcade and realistic driving physics, providing players with a big hint of what was to come from Polyphony Digital.A sequel, Motor Toon Grand Prix 2, was released in 1996 and unlike the first game, it was released worldwide. New additions such as new tracks, unlockable characters, and secret minigames were introduced, as well as adding in a proper power-up system that allows drivers to pick up coins along the track and then spend them on a power-up roulette. The physics were also greatly retooled to better match the realism the development team were aiming for. Unfortunately, because the first game was never released worldwide, it created a Title Confusion: The American release was named Motor Toon Grand Prix while the European release for some reason opted to keep the 2 in the title despite the first game being a Japan exclusive. | |

Power-Up | |
| Motor Toon Grand Prix (Video Game) / int_3a4898fb | comment |
Power-Up: When you spend a coin at any time during the race, a roulette will spin, and you will collect the power-up it stops on. Some of these include: Homing Projectile: Missile. Interface Screw: Crazy Mushroom, which reverses your target's left and right steering. Invincibility Power-Up: Super Shield, which also makes you faster. Transformation Trinket: Big-Bigger-Biggest and Tiny Tiny Tiny, two wands that make you grow and shrink respectively. | |

Some of the game's track layouts also provides several foreshadowing: Toon Island II is basically the Mascot Racer's version of High Speed Ring, while Toon Village and Haunted House's track layouts features close similarities with Autumn Ring and Special Stage Route 5 respectively. | |

Production Foreshadowing | |
| Motor Toon Grand Prix (Video Game) / int_9eca61c8 | comment |
Production Foreshadowing: Several elements that are present in Motor Toon Grand Prix 2 foreshadows the arrival of the first Gran Turismo game: Easily the most notable similarity between the two games is the realistic physics seen in the Motor Toon Grand Prix R minigame. Some of the game's track layouts also provides several foreshadowing: Toon Island II is basically the Mascot Racer's version of High Speed Ring, while Toon Village and Haunted House's track layouts features close similarities with Autumn Ring and Special Stage Route 5 respectively. A replay feature is also present and like with Gran Turismo's replay feature, it's available to be seen by the player in the menu after you finish a race. It doesn't play immediately after the race though. | |
